UNSPSC 85503844: Dilation of upper artery with drug-eluting intraluminal device, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to dilation of upper artery with drug-eluting intraluminal device, percutaneous endoscopic approach. This surgical intervention or procedure is listed in the World Health Organization's International Statistical Classification of Diseases and Related Health Problems or ICD-10 as code 037Y44Z

UNSPSC 85503844 Dilation of upper artery with drug-eluting intraluminal device, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code that does not map to actual state and local procurement activity in the recent opportunities on file. The code's nominal scope—a specific invasive cardiovascular procedure with a drug-eluting device—bears no relationship to the recent solicitations posted under this code. The City of Phoenix Retirement Office, City of Long Beach, Washington State Department of Transportation, Harris County Juvenile Probation Department, Collier County Board of County Commissioners, and County of Santa Clara Health System have all tagged opportunities to this code that cover medical record summary services, health plan carve-outs, occupational medical surveillance, specialty medical care for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary clinical staffing—none of which involve percutaneous arterial dilation or device placement. This appears to be a taxonomy-application error rather than a meaningful procurement category for state and local contract pursuit.

The source contains no evidence of state and local governments actually buying the procedure named by this code. Practitioners should treat this code as inactive for state and local procurement purposes and flag the tagging inconsistency with the issuing jurisdictions if exploring these opportunities further.
